Chaos From Switched-Capacitor Circuits: Discrete Maps [PDF]
, 1987 A special-purpose analog computer made of switched-capacitor circuits is presented for analyzing chaos and bifurcation phenomena in nonlinear discrete dynamical systems modeled by discrete maps *n + t = fan)-Experimental results are given for four ...

A Q‐Learning Algorithm to Solve the Two‐Player Zero‐Sum Game Problem for Nonlinear Systems
International Journal of Adaptive Control and Signal Processing, Volume 39, Issue 3, Page 566-581, March 2025.A Q‐learning algorithm to solve the two‐player zero‐sum game problem for nonlinear systems. ABSTRACT This paper deals with the two‐player zero‐sum game problem, which is a bounded L2$$ {L}_2 $$‐gain robust control problem. Finding an analytical solution to the complex Hamilton‐Jacobi‐Issacs (HJI) equation is a challenging task.

Complexity, 2020 In this work, we present an approach to design a multistable system with one-directional (1D), two-directional (2D), and three-directional (3D) hidden multiscroll attractor by defining a vector field on ℝ3 with an even number of equilibria. The design of

Stability Analysis of Switched Linear Singular Systems with Unstable and Stable Modes
Entropy, 2023 In this paper, stability is studied for a class of switched singular systems containing both stable and unstable modes. By introducing a time-varying piecewise Lyapunov function (TVPLF) and a mode-dependent average dwell time (ADT) switching rule, the ...

Numerical Modeling of Tank Cars Carrying Hazardous Materials With and Without Composite Metal Foam
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Large‐scale puncture models consisting of hazardous materials (HAZMATs) tank car with protective steel–steel composite metal foam (S–S CMF) are solved numerically. Tank car plate with added 10.91–13.33 mm thick S–S CMF layer does not puncture. Protective S–S CMF absorbs impact energy, reduces plate deformation, and prevents shear bands formation ...

Defect correction from a galerkin viewpoint [PDF]
, 1985 We consider the numerical solution of systems of nonlinear two point boundary value problems by Galerkin's method. An initial solution is computed with piecewise linear approximating functions and this is then improved by using higher—order piecewise ...

Dynamics of piecewise contractions of the interval
, 2012 We study the asymptotical behaviour of iterates of piecewise contractive maps of the interval. It is known that Poincar\'e first return maps induced by some Cherry flows on transverse intervals are, up to topological conjugacy, piecewise contractions ...

The flexible nature of exchange, correlation and Hartree physics: resolving "delocalization" errors in a 'correlation free' density functional [PDF]
, 2013 By exploiting freedoms in the definitions of 'correlation', 'exchange' and 'Hartree' physics in ensemble systems we better generalise the notion of 'exact exchange' (EXX) to systems with fractional occupations functions of the frontier orbitals, arising ...

Piecewise-Linear Lyapunov Functions for Linear Stationary Systems
Automation and Remote Control, 2002 The paper deals with piecewise-linear Lyapunov functions for the linear stationary system described by the vector differential equation \[ \frac {dx}{dt}=Ax,\quad x\in \mathbb R^N, \] where \(A\) is a real \(N\times N\)-matrix with constant elements. A Lyapunov function for this system can be constructed in the class of piecewise-linear functions as ...

Nanothermometry in Living Cells: Physical Limits, Conceptual and Material Challenges
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Heat and temperature are fundamental to life. When nanothermometers began probing regions as small as a living cell, they triggered controversial claims of large intracellular temperature gradients. We review physical constraints energy‐conservation, entropy production, thermodynamic fluctuations, and molecular dynamics.
